Joe,
The big corporate moves have more to do with marketing and sales than they do technical issues. Most of them have horrible ROI. I've been in companies of $500 Million and up which do not have any handle on their IT costs for non-MV work. Most companies work on a "% of gross" theory which says that as long as IT is under a particular "% of gross" in spending, we can ignore ROI.
Also, you have to realize that most IT managers in the Fortune 1000 don't have an incentive to go to any system which would promote a smaller staff in their area. I've had my bid for projects turned down for "not expensive enough, we can only assume that you are leaving things out."

IF BIG THREE Databases (DB2/ORACLE/MSSQL) was poor on ROI...
Why would 75% of the worlds Corporations depend on such databases?

Can you Name One BIG Fortune 100 that totally relies on UV?

I have heard stories where several corporations migrated to RDBMS, Never heard any LARGE Corp(Hershey, GE, BOfA etc) switch to UV/MVDBMS.
